Brief Answer:
USG at 5 weeks. Blood test beta HCG, level above 5 units indicate pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic.
I have gone through your query.
I think I have understood your concern, I will try to suggest you the best possible treatment options.
1] It seems to be too much of urine tests being performed.
2] First of all do not panic.
3] If you have already missed your periods, And at least one urine test is positive, I will suggest to wait till 5 weeks and get USG done. It will be able to show pregnancy sac in the uterus.
4] To clear up the doubts , please get urine test done on morning's first sample of urine. Also blood test Beta HCG is available, value above 5 units indicates pregnancy.
5] Please do not worry, be calm and happy.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you good health.
